she was knighted by the British Empire.
But she is not a Lady nor Dame.
The award level and seniority doesn't allow her any access to titles.
Unless of course she married to a Lord. Did she? -
A sad way to end a great woman's life.
Rest in Peace.

u mean u all never study about her in history?Originally posted by Diesel_Dimension:more info pls?
eg. her contributions..
the Japanese captured and tortured her for more than 200 days during world war II. she was subjected to electric shocks and pumped up with water as part of the interrogation routines. She was brave and never gave in to the Japanese despite all the torture. A true heroine.

She is truly a hero and deserved a state funeral for standing up against the Japanese.
Not like some one who was a lackey to the Japanese during Occupation.
Hope she can reunite with her hubby after some many years of separation. -

Not sure if there were lackeys, but there is indeed a double crosser....Originally posted by Medicated Oil:She is truly a hero and deserved a state funeral for standing up against the Japanese.

She was spoken in the same breath as Lim Bo Seng. Was a school teacher. My condolences..
